Hi, I noticed you are adding stubs for many Spanish towns. In case the Spanish article exists already (e.g. es:Mañaria), it would be helpful if you could include a link, like this: [[es:Mañaria]]. Thank you! --Aleph4 11:29, 11 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Another reason to register

Hi! I'd like to thank you for creating all these wonderful articles on Basque towns; that really is something we need.

Now, I'd like to politely ask you to register, for what is actually a rather selfish reason.

I'm an administrator; one thing this means is that I delete garbage articles (and there can be a lot of them). Sometimes I'll just get the list of the 100 newest articles, and check any that have suspicious names or that come from an anonymous user. Not all anonymous users vandalize, and not all vandalism comes from anonymous users, but the two go together a lot of the time. So, for my sake, if you registered, then I'd see the names on the list of New Articles, and there would be a note saying "created by WikiBasque" (or whatever name you choose), and I'd know that it was guaranteed to be a good article instead of garbage, and I wouldn't have to waste time checking it out.

Okay? DS 14:52, 11 October 2005 (UTC)
